    You still are failing to explain your comment of:

    "Capital punishment is an antithesis to Christian ideals."

    Are you unable to do so??

    Please show where your conclusion is stated; because there are also verses that address death as a punishment.

    And what does the Bible say about someone who is slovenly or slothful??

    The latter...but if I’m a law breaker I shouldn’t have a choice as to my punishment.

    capital punishment does not deter murder,
    Never claimed that it did. I stated a fact then I stated that it was the government’s responsibility to carry out capital punishment.

    and costs more than a life sentence for the taxpayers
    I’ve seen this statement all my life and a few attempts have been made to “prove” it. If it is true then it is the governments fault. It shouldn’t. A trial, one appeal, then the gallows. Not so much cost there.

    do your research
    I have done quite a bit. Read lots of arguments for and against. I always come down on the ‘for’ side.

    Celticguy above argues, correctly, for a strong separation of church and state.

    Really

    Jaime Osuna, 31, is accused of decapitating his 44-year-old cellmate Luis Romero, severing several of his body parts including an eye and finger and cutting out part of a lung, according to Kings County Assistant District Attorney Phil Esbenshade. Romero bled to death and was discovered by prison security during a morning check, local ABC affiliate KFSN reported.

    Osuna began serving a life sentence without parole in May 2017 for torturing and killing a woman in 2011.

    Until one can guarantee 100% conviction accuracy in capital cases, there is no good rationale for the death penalty.

    What is your acceptable error rate in capital cases? 10%? 5%. Less?

    OK; but what about those cases where there is a 100% accuracy?

    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    I’m referring to capital punishment as an institution. One is found either guilty or not guilty. Beyond a reasonable doubt, not 100%. What is the error rate that is acceptable in capital cases? 1%?

    Was John Wayne Gacy guilty 100%?

    Was Todd Kohlhepp guilty 100%?

    Was Richard Allen Davis guilty 100%?

    Was Jeffrey Lionel Dahmer guilty 100%?

    Was Ted Bundy guilty 100%?




    Was Dylann Roof guilty 100%?

    All of these are 100%, only a Goddamn Idiot would think different

    So u think there is a chance Dylann Roof didn't do it?
